Hi cervorange,

if you can still log in disable it in the settings after logging in on:

You can otherwise do a password reset which should disable your 2FA

if you currently have a device connected to your account you can request a recovery key. you can find this option you:

  1. open "Tools > Options > Sync" or "Firefox > Set Up Sync"
  2. click "Set Up Firefox Sync" to go to "Firefox Sync Setup"
  3. click "I Have an Account" : Connect
  4. click "I don't have the device with me" at the bottom to enter the account settings (email, password, sync key)

I try this, but the procedure is différent. When you arrive here :

"2-Check your email and click the password reset link in it."

You reset directly you're password without enter recovery key. So it's what i done. But after it ask me to confirm my gmail account and it say that an email it send but .... no email...

Do you get the email that lets you change your password? or only one that a password change has been requested?

is the account still logged in on any of your devices? (sometimes the mail does get sent but doesn't arrive for some reason usually remaking an account on that email should fix this problem)

no, not know....

If it's logged in nowhere, you cannot receive a backup code and 2fa is unavailable then i am afraid there is no possibility for you to log in and delete the account. And as a tip for next time i'd advise you to use an alternative to Google Authenticator. i myself use Authy which is available on multiple devices.

Ok, thank you very much for you're answers and you're time.

I would like to know how many time i have to wait before i can re-use my old email address? I think it's very strange to have no way to do a new account with an old email address. I must create a new email adress just for this....
